Deductible Renewals:
With 2014 nearing, we wanted to take this opportunity to address an important insurance issue that a new calendar year always brings. Whether you have an individual or employer-sponsored Health Insurance plan, there are certain things to keep in mind as we close out 2013.

There are many qualifications and limitations regarding what health insurance covers and to what extent. Certain requirements must be satisfied before the insurance company will begin paying benefits. A deductible is a fixed dollar amount the policy holder must pay out-of-pocket for eligible services before the insurance company will make payment on covered medical expenses. [For example, if your policy has a $500.00 deductible, you must pay $500.00 worth of healthcare expenses before your insurance will start paying out.]

For most policies, the medical plan’s deductible is based on a calendar year regardless of when your coverage became effective. All calendar year deductibles will therefore be renewed on January 1, 2014. If you are unsure about your policy, please contact your insurance carrier for more information.
